// Function: clamp
// Clamp a value between two boundaries.
//
// Parameters:
// val - value to clamp
// low - lower boundary
// high - upper boundary
//
// Returns:
// low if val < low, high if val > high, val otherwise

// Function: scalarCompare
// Check for equality, using an epsilon.
//
// Parameters:
// val1 - First value to compare.
// val2 - Second value to compare.
// epsilon - Epsilon value, defaults to 0.0001.
//
// Returns:
// true if |val1-val2| < epsilon, meaning values are approximately equal
bool scalarCompare(scalar val1, scalar val2, scalar epsilon=0.000001);
// Group: Degrees/Radians
// Function: degToRad
// Convert degrees to radians.
//
// Parameters:
// degrees - Degree value to convert to radians.
//
// Returns:
// Radian equivalent of 'degrees'.
//
// See Also:
// <radToDeg>
scalar degToRad(scalar degrees);
// Function: radToDeg

// Parameters:
